Scrap plans to charge students for the use of Online Catch-Up Tv

Petition Details

The Government have decided to change the TV licensing rules so that students will have to pay the £145.50 TV license in order to carry on watching BBC iPlayer Catch Up services. I believe this isn't right, this should be stopped or at least the TV license price should be lowered.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

It's not clear whether you want everyone to be able to watch the iPlayer without a TV licence, or whether you would like a specific exemption for students.

You could start a new petition asking clearly for the specific action you want.
